III. Comments on the Text on the Draft Electoral Law 


E. Financing of elections


Article 48.9 of the parliamentary electoral law prohibits any payments from the campaign electoral fund after 18:00 hours on the day prior to election day. This may prove to be too restrictive as candidates and political parties must have time to pay invoices and other bills that may arrive after the deadline. It would seem more appropriate to prohibit any new expenses or invoices for campaign activity that occur after the deadline.
